The Allis Chalmers WD Row-Crop tractor was manufactured between 1948 and 1953. This tractor is approximately 65 years of age, and appears to be complete including the rubber tires, though they could be replacements.

"The Allis-Chalmers WD featured Two-Clutch Power Control and power-shifted rear wheels. The dual clutch system used a foot-operated dry clutch to disconnect the PTO (Power Take-Off} and driveline from the engine. A hand-operated wet clutch allowed the PTO to operate while the tractor was slowed or stopped.
